Field notes
The homepage arranges stories under Glorious Mistakes, Weird Engineering, Impractical Legends, and Spec Sheet Nonsense, with additional destinations for a Quirk DB, Auction Watch, quiz, and Spotted section. Article cards pair dates and reading times with a recurring “Weirdest quirk” detail; examples include the seven motors and 610 feet of wire in Ford’s folding hardtop and the flame-retardancy workaround behind the Levi’s Gremlin upholstery. A poll about automatic seat belts invites readers to vote.
